How Rick Barlow started their logo design journey

Summary

I have a company called Oyster Seed Holding, LLC we reproduce oysters in a fairly technical operation. The oyster seeds we reproduce are placed in bodies of water where oysters have declined due to pollution and other factors. We would like to have a logo produced for our website and other stationary needs. We are very open to many ideas and our website http://www.oysterseedholdings.com is up

Company name

Oyster Seed Holdings, LLC

What inspires you and how do you envision the design for your business?

Would like to have a logo designed for our company called Oyster Seed Holdings, LLC. There is a website we have that is http://www.oysterseedholdings.com the site has very limited information has we have just put it up.

We are open to various design aspects of the logo. Can be round, square or rectangular in shape.

Would like to see some logos that reflect a recycle or green enviroment as that is what our company is about. We produce Oysters for the Chesapeake Bay which in the last 25 years has seens a serious decline. So what we are doing is seen as a very environmental and fundamental part to make the oyster survive.

Our typical customer is a watermen that is growing oysters for a living and catching them. There is also a very scientific background to what we do, as a scientist with a phd does all the breed to develop the oyster seed.

I dont know if any this background information helps in designing a logo but let me know if you need more.

Wants

- Would like the logo to have this: Oyster Seed Holdings, LLC
- Would like the logo to have location of our business: Gwynn's Island, Virginia or it can say Gwynn's Island, Va.
- We have chosen a color for our website at http://www.oysterseedholdings.com so we would like to see a logo that woudl fit that color scheme. but if you would like to create alterative color schemes that you think would reflect our company in a better way , feel free to do so.

Don't want

- Dont worry about trying to depict an oyster on the logo. It is a very ugly creature and not very graphic friendly.
